Assemblies

Please note that assembly registration was on signup.c3assemblies.de. Read more about this year's registration on this year's blog post. Feel free to add a page here with more details about your Assembly, but don't forget to link to your Assembly page on signup.c3assemblies.de.

We do not monitor this page here and entries here are NOT a registration for an assembly!

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate and contact the assemblies Team via 35C3 {at} c3assemblies.de

Over the last years we've seen a shift in focus away from group meetings and discussing topics at hand towards lectures and workshops. For many groups it was hard to find a decent home base to store their equipment and to get new folks interested in their community. On the other hand, for new hackers it became harder to find someone to talk to, as everybody was wandering around. At the Chaos Communication Camp, we had a solution for that: Villages. Groups of people sharing ideas, from hackerspaces or projects come together in what is called an Assembly.

So, if you're a group of hackers that likes to work and hang out together, bring your toys, work on projects, have fun, let others participate in what you're doing, and present yourself to new hackers! See also the blog post from 29C3 on this, and especially the update from this year's blogpost.

We want to have workshops or talks at our Assembly!

This is great! The Assemblies are an integral part of the congress and make up a lot of the program: Sharing knowledge and presenting your projects is central for the conference. If your Assembly also wants to offer workshops, sessions and other activities like lectures on a small scale, state that in your Assembly registration page.

If you want to have a separate place in your Assembly for ongoing sessions, tell us what your plans are and how many people you want to accommodate. Please be as specific as possible. We will probably not allocate extra workshop space for your Assembly if your registration doesn't really show the requirement for large space. Publishing a schedule in advance, topics and speakers will definitely help to convince us.

For bigger self-organized sessions there will be separate smaller and larger workshop rooms you can register for on-site. If you are not planning to have many events, please use them instead of requiring extra space at your Assembly.

What should we consider when registering?

The more you tell us about your plans, the better your chances are that you'll actually get what you want and need. Please let us know what you are planning to do, how much space you'll need, what you'll like to bring with you, how much power your gear will consume, etc. You should also mention what kind of space you want. If you only want to hang out with a few friends, you might be ambiguous about your space, but if you want to present your Assembly and discuss with people passing-by, you might want a public space. Be as specific and realistic with your plans and requirements as possible. Please note that we won't allocate space for every Assembly this year: We will reserve space for the Assemblies actively adding value to our community on site and leave it to you to share the rest of the space. Also consider organizing yourselves in chaos competence centers.

What should we bring, what will be there?

The only infrastructure provided by the congress will be:

tables and chairs,

a power line

network access on location.

Though there will be a large number of power outlets and switches, you cannot rely on them being available to you. This means that you have to bring all equipment yourself, which is:

power multipliers and strips,

switches and network cables,

projectors and hackerspace/project swag.

Assemblies are invited to bring their toys and also to decorate their spots on the congress and its environment, as long as whatever you bring is not inflammable or blocks exit paths (This is required! Otherwise we are forced to remove them!).
If you want to bring bigger things or other uncommon stuff, please contact (c3-assemblies (at) lists.ccc.de) us. There is also a special wiki site for large things you bring but cannot maintain yourself, so somebody else might take care of it during the congress.

Shared Spaces

Shared Spaces are tables that must not be permanently occupied. They are intended for those who don't have an Assembly, but want to sit down for a moment, and for workshops of the surrounding Assemblies. If you plan a workshop at a shared space, be fair and let the people sitting there know in advance (easiest is to place a sign). Workshops do have prio, if they have been announced before.

List of Assembly pages

The list below is automatically filled using semantic information on the Assembly pages. If you want to add your Assembly to the list, just create it using the Assembly form. If you like to update the corresponding information below, head to your Assembly page and update it using the edit button. Note that it might take some time until the information below gets updated as the list contains cached information.

Be aware that this is only the list of registered Assemblies - some of them might not have an allocated spot in the house!

about:freedom cluster is focused on digital rights politics and free software advocacy. It's a union of different and diverse organisations from all over the world promoting free software and defending and extending digital rights. Transparency, rule of law, freedom, privacy, equal access and participation are the core defining principles of this orbit. It's an open policy arena in which we wish to meet and exchange with every freedom fighter out there!

Like last year's CSOC the assembly is intended as place to hang out (and to show of projects) for everyone interested in space exploration, space travel, satellites, cubesats, satellite tracking, diy astronomy, amateur rocketry ... you name it.

As we have seen on the CCCamp2015, power cuts can happen. Therefore a power independent communication channel is a must have. Furthermore would it be nice to have a way to communicate from one Seidenstraßen Node to another one. All of this and a lot more is the Chaosvermittlung.

CryptoParties are free and open for everyone, but especially those without prior knowledge, who haven't yet attended one. CryptoParty is a decentralized movement with events happening all over the world. The goal is to pass on knowledge about protecting yourself in the digital space. This can include encrypted communication, preventing being tracked while browsing the web, and general security advice regarding computers and smartphones. To try the tools and apps directly at the CryptoParty, bring your laptop or smartphone.

The Digitale Gesellschaft Schweiz (Digital Society) is a charitable organization that is committed to fundamental and human rights, an open knowledge culture, as well as transparency and participation in social decision-making processes.

Free and Open Source Community from Asia! We bring our hardware projects and do workshops with Pocket Science Lab, CraftLaser Cutter, DIY Smart Speakers with SUSI.AI, and more. You can buy a PSLab at the workshops. Our team comes from Singapore, Vietnam, China, Spain, Germany ..

The Free Software Foundation Europe is dedicated to spread software freedom as a way and a central pillar of a free society. We do lobbying & public relations and we offer legal advice and interest representation in favor of Free Software. This assembly is hosted for and by our members, friends and supporters to offer a common space to discuss, meet, hack and organise. Let's put the hacking back into politics!

Freeside is a loose conglomerate of hackers from around the globe. Cyberpunks, Stirner enthusiasts, beer drinkers, hedgehog admirers, and victims of the programming language Go. We assemble on IRC and at CCCongress.

We are a bunch of people playing CTFs for fun (not so much profit though, unfortunately). Most of our people are loosely connected to Munich. The team was originally founded in 2011 as h4x0rpsch0rr and is now known as hxp.

If you're looking for information on collaborative economy, wonder what role cooperatives could play in changing our economic system or want to join/found a tech-cooperative then this is the place for you.

librehosters is a network of cooperation and solidarity that uses free software to encourage decentralisation through federation and distributed platforms. Our values connect transparency, fairness and privacy with a culture of data portability and public contributions to the commons.

Monero is a decentralized cryptocurrency, meaning it is secure digital cash operated by a network of users. The core values of Monero are privacy and fungibility. This assembly continues the tradition from the past years at C3. We are also co-hosting a small stage with presentations and community talks. See: https://taiga.getmonero.org/project/rehrar-35c3-2/

the narwhals - a well-bound group of monodontids with polycuriosity, which got together the first time around 2009 in the impetuous seas of the Ostalb - once more will arrive in the hallow seas of the CCC to connect and hack with all the vital species thriving around our beloved hackerculture. each individual in our band of narwhals has various specializations which each will happily share with all other personalities, e.g. reverse engineering, hardware hacking (rfid, nfc), advanced networking, advanced linux hackery.

We are Nextcloud, we build an open source self-hosted file sync and share alternative to the public clouds. We care about privacy, security, open source, federation, self-hosting, among others - come by to know more about Nextcloud, or join us for some great conversations!

The Open Source Hardware Association (OSHWA) aims to foster technological knowledge and encourage research that is accessible, collaborative and respects user freedom. OSHWA’s primary activities include hosting the annual Open Hardware Summit and maintaining the Open Source Hardware certification, which allows the community to quickly identify and represent hardware that complies with the community definition of open source hardware.
